What a year for Giannis Antetokounmpo. Not only was he given the NBA MVP last season, he has led the Milwaukee Bucks to the No. 1 overall seed in the NBA with a 45-7 record (to this point), and he has become a brand-new father.

On Monday afternoon, the Greek Freak posted a picture of his newborn son on Twitter to reveal the mini freak to the world.

Unfortunately for the Bucks and Bucks fans, Antetokounmpo will be sitting out Monday night's game against the Sacramento Kings. Fortunately for him and his girlfriend, however, he will be using that time off to spend with his newborn son.

However, the Bucks might not have to worry that much. However good they are with Antetokounmpo on the court, they're almost as solid with him off as well. According to a Jan. 17 article from Bleacher Report, the Bucks' net rating without him on the court would be second-best in the NBA behind only the Bucks with Antetokounmpo.

Congratulations to Giannis and his girlfriend, Mariah Riddlesprigger, on their first child. Thankfully, the Bucks will be okay without him.
